论文摘要
巴里·马祖尔(Barry Mazur)在几年前发表了一篇文章,他表明,除其他外,柏拉图(Plato)的theatetus和Euclid s命题的所谓数学通过中的结果是非常不同的,而几乎所有的历史学家和评论员都声称相反。在本讲座中,我们认为这个问题试图理解如何以及为什么发生这样的错误,这种“奇怪的妄想”引用了Mazur。
Barry Mazur published an article some year ago, where he showed, among other things, that the result in the so-called mathematical passage of Plato s Theatetus and Euclid s proposition X.9 in the Elements are very different, while almost all historians and commentators have claimed the opposite. In this lecture, we consider this question to try to understand how and why could have happened such an error, this 'strange delusion' to quote Mazur.
